I am now 8 weeks post op from Peroneal Tendon Surgery. I spent 5 weeks in a fiberglass cast with no weight bearing on the foot and 3 weeks wearing an Air-Cast Boot and weight bearing with walking using crutches and/or walker.

Today I got permission to transition out of the Air-Cast Boot to an ASO (Ankle Stabilizing Orthosis) ankle brace and shoe.

Well, I tried that when I got home and I cannot walk. My ankle feels like JELLO. I guess I have some muscle building to do.
